These are free printable book pages that would be perfect for Father's Day or a dad's birthday gift. You can get one of those inexpensive 4 x 6 photo albums, then just download these pages, print, cut, have your child draw or write - or even draw and write - on the pages, insert them in the sleeves of the album, and you're good to go. Unfortunately, I didn't have the album, but it was fairly easy to make this book. Let me show you how I did it.
First, I printed out the pages, then used my trimmer to cut them.
I used a photo paper for the cover page and presentation paper for the rest of the pages. But you can use regular printer paper if you want.
Then I used my paper trimmer to cut some light blue cardstock into 5-by-6 1/2 inches, this will serve as a mat for the prints. And then I used my scoring board to score 1/2 inch from the left side.
Then I adhered the printed out pages to the cardstock with double sided tape. I punched two holes on the left side, and used brads to hold all the pages together. But you can also staple it, or use ribbons, whatever floats your boat. Easy peasy, right? The kids would have fun filling out the pages too.
I made these printables by using the Father's Day digital scrapbooking kit from Kristal Kreations. Do check out her blog, you'll be glad you did!
So here are the free downloads. Just click on the title underneath the photos. These are all 4 x 6 pages, the watermark is not gonna be on the downloaded sheets. You are more than welcome to download and print all of them, but you can also choose to download just the pages you want to include in your book. Enjoy!
